In recent years, dermal fillers have become increasingly popular for their ability to reduce wrinkles, restore volume and fullness to the face, and make your skin look younger and fresher. Bellafill stacks up against the competition with its long-lasting and natural-looking results, but potential clients may wonder if it is worth the price tag. Let’s discuss the benefits of this dermal filler and how it can benefit you in the long run.
What is Bellafill?
Bellafill is an FDA-approved, biocompatible dermal filler that is long-lasting and combats stubborn wrinkles, particularly the nasolabial folds or smile lines. It contains polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, which are injected into the skin with an ultrafine needle. Once injected, these microspheres stimulate collagen production to refresh your appearance. PMMA has been safely used in medical implants and other devices for over 65 years.
The collagen-stimulating effects of Bellafill provide both immediate and long-lasting results. Be prepared to see enhanced volume and lift as soon as you leave the office. Over time, the PMMA microspheres are left behind to create a supportive base, allowing your skin to produce more collagen on its own. Because this filler is non-resorbable, meaning it does not reabsorb into the body like other dermal fillers, your skin is kept smoother for longer. Science meets your body’s naturally produced collagen for a premium wrinkle treatment.

Bellafill FAQs
Is Bellafill safe?
Absolutely! Being FDA-approved, Bellafill has a strong safety profile. The team at Radiant Reflections Weight Loss Clinic & MedSpa have over 50 years of combined experience in cosmetic treatments – you are in good hands!
When will I see the results of my Bellafill treatment?
You’ll see results immediately after your treatment and can expect to see ongoing improvements for up to six months after your injections. These results can last up to five years, and for some clients, even longer!
How long does it take to get a Bellafill treatment?
A Bellafill treatment takes around 30 to 60 minutes to complete and is performed right in the office. Expect to wait a few more weeks for noticeable results. Remember – your Bellafill journey is a marathon, not a sprint! Once the initial collagen base is absorbed, the PMMA microspheres will do their magic.
Will I have to come in for maintenance or touch-ups?
Nope! That is the beauty of Bellafill. A “one and done” miracle wrinkle treatment, your results will last for years to come.
What should I expect right after the treatment? Any downtime?
Most clients can resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment, making Bellafill an excellent option with little to no downtime. Plan on giving your skin some extra TLC, as it may feel a bit sensitive, and follow these tips for the first few days:
- Avoid direct sunlight and heat, such as hot showers, saunas, and hot tops.
- Avoid strenuous exercise. This can increase circulation and cause the filler to move.
- Avoid touching the treated area. This can move the filler and increase the risk of infection.
- Use sunscreen every day! Sun exposure is a known cause of premature aging, so protecting your skin from harmful rays is important.
Any side effects to expect?
All aesthetic treatments have some sort of side effect. Don’t be surprised if you experience redness, swelling, or minor irritation. Applying ice for 15-20 minutes at a time multiple times a day will reduce inflammation and help your skin heal.
I am pregnant or breastfeeding. Is it safe for me?
Pregnant or breastfeeding clients should avoid Bellafill.
